Just moved to NH in June...

I'm up near Dartmouth. Pretty bizarre contrast to my All-Blue former state of Connecticut. I live way out in the boonies (everything seems to be "the boonies" in the Upper Valley), over a mile down a couple of dirt roads. Two "neighbors," (houses aren't very close together out here in the woods) have "Don't Tread On Me" flags out front. As a hippie liberal artist, I feel kind of out of place up here.

Our road had a couple of the fake President's signs on it, and every time I passed them I pictured myself tearing them
up. That helped a lot. The signs are gone now. I'd like to think people wised up but I don't know.

Dartmouth is a beautiful area. Do you ski? We always went to Ragged Mountain in Danbury when we were younger.

I assume you know that NH winters will have the white stuff piled up to your windows and burying your lane. Be ready!
